Partner won't sleep with me

[TweedAddict]

I'm so upset. This has been going on for a few months, he won't touch me at all. And when he does eventually kiss or cuddle me it just seems so forced. I end up crying myself to sleep most nights. He says I'm his all, he loves me, doesn't want to be without me. I don't know what to do, I feel so worthless, I've told him how I feel, he says he's sorry and he will sort it; but weeks on nothing. Any advice?

I'm in exactly the same place as you OP and have a thread going about it! I haven't had sex with my BF for a year now not since the day I found out I was pregnant, I'm also really upset and have spoken to him about this for a few weeks now and still nothing not even kissing/cuddling, it's a horrible situation to be in

He's not the man for you. Better to know now, than to be 39 and hoping to conceive whilst only having sex once a year. Women have posted that kind of thing on MN.

If it has been a long time maybe he doesn't feel comfortable knowing how to start that intimacy again? My ex and I had this earlier in relationship. My sex drive was quite low and I could take it or leave it really. I did get some books to read they really helped. Could u suggest something like that?

Would he agree or even consider some couples counselling do you think?

Certainly do not buy a house with him just yet, not with these problems.

You need to tell him this. And maybe have some time apart, tell him you need some space on your own to think about the future.

This may give him a jolt to reality that he could stand to lose you and maybe address the problems in the relationship.
